Adding R kernel

[lg2518]

Is there any way to use R in the jupyter notebook? Usually i’d install rbase with pip, then install IRkernal, but doing so on Carnets doesn’t seem to work. Is this possible?

The user can only install packages that do not require compilation (pure python packages). Running R in Carnets would requires compiling R for iOS, something that has not been done (to the best of my knowledge). Like Julia (#111) it would have to be in a different App.

Hi, is is OK with you if we keep the issue open? That works as a reminder for me that people are interested in R, and others can comment that they, too, would be interested.

R should be compilable on arm64 darwin.

There are a lot of apps that have python integration but none that have R, although is required by many teachers. Don't understand why
